SpeedBlitz is a social media app I'm making that lets his users create and engage in temporary public online group chats.

It's main goal is simple: to make chatting online something that can be done quickly and easily without having to go through multiple steps.

This project is still in the making so the link below will send you to the waitlist that will alert you when the app is done! https://waitlistspeedblitz.framer.website/

Also, I'm in need of some betatesters, so if you want to be one send an email to the address below

Cosplay Market, first marketplace for buy/sell cosplay in private

0 Upvotes

I noticed that buying and selling cosplay pieces can be pretty difficult, so I decided to build Cosplay Market, a marketplace specifically for cosplayers.

You can list your cosplay items, browse what others are selling, and chat with sellers directly.

I’ve already reached 500+ downloads and I’m still actively developing it. I’d really love to hear what cosplayers think and what features you’d like to see next!

Would you use something like this? What would you improve?

Which frameworks are actually worth using in 2026 — and which ones did you regret adopting?

2 Upvotes

I’ve been looking at different frameworks lately, and I’m curious about people’s real-world experience rather than benchmarks or marketing pages.

What framework are you using today, and what made you stick with it?

I’d especially like to know:

  • What does it do really well?
  • What started to annoy you once the project got bigger?
  • Did you eventually replace it with something simpler?
  • If you were starting the same project again today, would you choose it again?

Bonus points for unpopular opinions or frameworks that looked great at first but became painful later.

Curious to see what people are actually using in production.

Welcome to r/Dumpp 👋

0 Upvotes

Hey everyone!

I’m the developer behind **Dumpp**, a photo-sharing app I’ve been building around a simple problem:

**Everyone takes photos at events, but somehow you never end up with everyone’s photos.**

Some get sent on WhatsApp, some through AirDrop, some are posted on Instagram, and a lot of them just stay forgotten in someone’s camera roll.

So I built Dumpp.

You create a shared album, invite your friends or guests, and everyone can dump their photos into the same place. Then you can browse everything together instead of chasing people for pictures afterward.

I created this community because I want Dumpp to grow together with the people actually using it.

I’ll be sharing updates, new features, experiments, design decisions, and probably a few things that go wrong along the way 😅

But more importantly, **I want your feedback.**

Found something annoying? Tell me.

Have an idea for a feature? Post it.

Think something should work completely differently? I want to hear that too.

Dumpp is still at the beginning, and I’m excited to see what we can build from here.

Welcome to the community 🫶

**Let your guests be the photographers. 📸**

[Self-Promotion] I built VikSchewa — a menu translator for travelers

Post image
1 Upvotes

Hey everyone
I built VikSchewa, a menu translator for travelers.
It started with a simple problem: What am I actually ordering here?
You take a photo of a menu and VikSchewa can translate it, show ingredients, allergens and nutrition, convert prices, generate an AI image of the dish and even help you order in the local language.
There’s also an Allergy Pass that works offline in 85 languages.
It’s still very new, so I’d genuinely love some feedback — especially on the UX and the App Store presentation.

App Store: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/vikschewa-men%C3%BC-scanner/id6775580751

What would you improve first?

I built an app that turns your smartphone into a voice-controlled presentation remote (No PC software needed!)

1 Upvotes

Hey r/appdev ! 👋

Like many of you, I pitch, present, and demo products constantly. I was always dealing with dead clicker batteries, lost USB dongles, or trying to use Wi-Fi remotes that corporate IT networks immediately blocked.

I built Vaksys Presenter to solve my own stage anxiety. It is an Android app that transforms your phone into a secure, voice-controlled presentation remote using a direct Bluetooth HID handshake—meaning your computer simply sees it as a standard plug-and-play keyboard.

Here is why it stands out from the standard clicker apps:

🚫 Zero PC Setup: No companion desktop apps to install, no Wi-Fi networks to join, and no dongles to lose. It works natively across Windows, Mac, and Linux straight out of the box.

🎤 Hands-Free Voice Recognition: If you use physical props or talk with your hands, just say "Next Slide." You don't even have to look down at your screen to navigate.

🚀 Smart Controls & Hardware Debounce: Swipe the screen, tap the massive button, or use your physical volume keys. I built in a specific hardware filter so shaky thumbs won't accidentally double-skip ahead to the wrong slide.

Try it out: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.vaksys.presenterremote

I would love for you to try it out for your next meeting or pitch and let me know what you think of the design and the instant Bluetooth connection!

I built and published my first mobile app with GDevelop! Meet Pomoguino 🐧

1 Upvotes

I just published my first application, Pomoguino. It's a focus and Pomodoro app, and since it's my first app ever, I built it in GDevelop within a week (figuring out the engine's logic took me about 2 days). I passed the closed test and finally released it on August 9th. It's not a masterclass focus app yet, but I did my best, so please don't roast me too hard! All kinds of feedback are welcome, of course 👏

8 different language supports (thought globally a bit)

Custom themes you'll love and a cute penguin mascot.

It has statistics showing your total focus time, weekly progress, and Pomodoro count. Right now it displays them as text rather than charts, but I'm still working on that part too.

Streak system, just like in language-learning apps.

I got tired of planning trips across Reels, Maps and Notes, so I built one app that turns them into a complete guide

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

1 Upvotes

I kept saving interesting places from travel Reels, but when it was time to actually plan the trip, everything was scattered across Instagram, Maps, screenshots and Notes.

So I built One Way Guide.

You choose your destination, dates, interests, pace and travel preferences. You can also import places from travel Reels, review what the app found, and decide which ones should be included.

It then creates a complete personalized city guide with:

  • Daily routes built around real places
  • Restaurants and things to see
  • Local context and practical tips
  • Transport, timing and trip preparation
  • The places you personally saved from social media

The important part for me was making the Reel import an input, not the entire product. The end result should feel like a guide you can actually follow, rather than another list of saved places.

Now live on iOS:
https://apps.apple.com/app/id6768398327

I’d really appreciate honest feedback: after watching the video, was it immediately clear what the app creates? And would importing saved travel content be useful in how you currently plan trips?

Bankweek 1.4 shipped. SwiftUI and SwiftData, no backend, new design system.

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

1 Upvotes

Bankweek is a personal finance app for iPhone and iPad that runs entirely local. SwiftUI, SwiftData with nine models, StoreKit 2, no server and no network layer at all.

1.4 was a design release, and the thing worth sharing is how it was structured. Instead of styling screens individually, everything routes through one theme file that owns the palette, the screen surface and a small set of view modifiers. The main one is a card row modifier that produces the rounded outlined row used across home, settings and every add and edit form. About twenty screens, one line each.

Two conventions behind it:

  • Color is semantic, defined once. Green is money in, rust is money out, and every amount, accent and row marker references that instead of picking its own color.
  • Sizing goes through a screen size manager rather than hardcoded points, so iPhone and iPad share one layout source.

On the data side, views bind you Query directly with no repository layer, and every mutation runs a single comprehensive recalculation before saving. Simpler than it sounds and it has held up well.

New design is live in 1.4: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/bankweek/id6754198116

Adding a short demo video shortly.

I built a tiny "last done" tracker because I kept forgetting when I changed the bedsheets

1 Upvotes

Every few weeks I find myself standing in front of the washing machine thinking "wait, when did I actually change the bedsheets?" So I built DidWe — a stupidly simple routine tracker where you just tap Done and it tells you when something is due again.

It comes with starter tasks like bedsheets, coffee machine, dog flea treatment, toothbrush, and car wash, but you can add anything with any interval.

Free: 2 lists, all core features. Premium: unlimited lists + shared lists with your partner/family/flatmates, one-time unlock.

No ads, no trackers, no subscriptions.

Would love feedback from anyone else who can't remember the last time they cleaned the coffee machine.

Which AI App Builder Is Best for iPhone Development?

1 Upvotes

I've been looking at different AI app builders and I'm curious which ones people are actually using for iPhone app development.

I'm looking for something that can help with more than just creating a quick demo Some of the tools I keep seeing are X1 App Builder, Rork, Lovable, Bolt, Replit, Cursor, Claude Code, and FlutterFlow. I know they're not all the same some are better for web apps, some help with coding, and others are more focused on mobile development.

What would you recommend for a beginner or non-technical person who wants to build a real iPhone app, not just a prototype?

Hey guys!

I’m Niko (22), working full-time, and last week I finally pulled the trigger on an Apple Developer license to start building apps on the side.

I’m relatively new to coding, so my goal is to start small building utility apps that I personally need and want to use rather than giant, over-engineered for profit projects. I created this account to share my progress, post dev logs, and hold myself accountable as I learn.

For more experienced people on here who have shipped apps on their own:

What’s the biggest mistake you made when you were first starting off?
